I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 124 She Deserves the Fate Brought Upon Her
Looking at the jewelry box scattered around her feet, Leanna saw the necklace inside the box had been broken into two pieces
and was strewed on the ground.
While she was looking at the broken necklace on the ground, Georgina came back to her senses at this moment. She quickly
looked at Anna and said, “Anna, what are you doing—”
However, Anna swiftly interrupted Georgina before she could continue inquiring about her action. “Georgina, this woman faked
her pregnancy and forced Aidan to marry her. She’s also the woman who tried every means to seduce Zayn!”
Georgina defended Leanna upon hearing that. “No, McK isn’t someone with such a nature. Anna, could it be that you
misunderstood?”
Considering that she hated Leanna so much, Anna let out a sarcastic laugh when she heard Georgina defend her. Nevertheless,
despite her sarcastic laugh directed at Georgina’s remarks, her eyes were looking at Leanna while she talked, “Say: you’re good
at pretending. Do you think others won’t know what kind of trash you are in your core under that layer of facade you put on?”
“Uh—”
Leanna slowly turned around and looked at Anna with a calm demeanor. “What trash am I in my core?”
In contrast with Leanna’s calm demeanor, Anna was a little agitated when she saw Leanna being able to calmly refute her words.
Therefore, she reprimanded her out of frustration, “Are you not aware of it yourself? After you and Aidan got divorced, you
started pestering Zayn. Not only that, you’re still pestering Zayn even now after he and I are already engaged. Are you really
unable to live a life without men?”
Still, Leanna remained her composure and smiled calmly. “Do you think you two can still get engaged if I truly pestered Zayn?”
Anna uttered in anger, gritting her teeth, “Finally, you admit it!”
“What’s there that I can’t admit? You’re just afraid that I will snatch Zayn from you. How about I fulfill your fear now since you’re
so afraid?”
“You—”
At this juncture, Anna was enraged. She raised her hand and wanted to whack Leanna. Yet, Georgina stopped her just when her
hand was inches away from Leanna. “Anna, don’t be impulsive.”
Sure enough, Anna knew she shouldn’t be reckless. Nonetheless, she was so enraged that she was no longer rational at this
moment. “You heard her. She can even spew such shameless words out of her mouth. She deserves the fate brought upon her!”
Georgina frowned upon hearing those harsh words. “There’s a big occasion going on today. Not to mention, both Mr. and Mrs.
Barnett are present too. Things won’t be any good to you if things are blown out of proportion.”

As soon as these words escaped Georgina’s lips, Anna calmed down. Despite that, she wasn’t afraid of what Georgina
mentioned. In reality, she suddenly remembered that Aidan was also inside the hall. Compared to Mr. and Mrs. Barnett, she was
actually more afraid of Aidan. He certainly won’t let me go if he knows that I lay my hand on Leanna. With that in mind, Anna
withdrew her hand, but she immediately cast a furtive glance at Leanna’s belly as her mind started scheming something else. At
this moment, a bustling voice suddenly came from the banquet hall. Georgina’s subordinates came over and whispered a few
words in her ear. As she listened, her facial expression changed slightly. Then, she turned around and wanted to return to the
hall. Regardless, she looked at Leanna after she took a step forward. “Miss McK, I may need to trouble you to come with me.
There’s something wrong with the jewelry pieces that Lux auctioned today.” Little did they know, a figure was waiting until they
left and came out of the dark. After standing on the spot for a while, the figure looked at the broken necklace on the ground. The
figure only picked it up and pocketed it after looking at it for a few seconds. After that, the figure turned and left. ...
In the meantime, things were pretty chaotic at the charity auction site. In line with the discussion, Lux Jewelry would exhibit its
jewelry pieces in order. Nevertheless, something happened when it was the turn to auction Leanna’s works. Not only did
Harvey’s expression look slightly nasty, Queenie even stepped forward and asked in confusion, “Isn’t this the jewelry piece that I
privately customized for Miss Crossley?” Although her voice wasn’t loud, the words that escaped her mouth still caused quite a
stir in the quiet banquet hall. When the guests who attended the auction heard Queenie’s words, they started discussing and
whispering, “What is Lux doing? Are they actually taking out a custom-made necklace for auction?!” “This isn’t right. Isn’t it McK’s
works that are being auctioned now? How could it be—what the hell is going on?” “The McK that you’re talking about—is she the
designer who was rumored to be someone’s mistress? I saw her that time when I went to Lux’s new product launch conference.
She’s quite beautiful indeed. I think making such a woman be my sugar baby isn’t such a terrible idea.” As soon as the person
said this, he felt a cold and sharp gaze looking at him. Unfortunately, he discovered nothing when he turned his head.
At this moment, no one was more anxious than Harvey after hearing these discussions. If my memory serves me right, I swear I
had double-checked until I confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the jewelry before they were delivered to the charity
auction site.
He was confident that he didn’t make any possible mistakes, so he quickly went to look for Queenie. Once he found her, he
frowned and asked, “What’s going on?”
When faced with Harvey’s inquiry, Queenie shook her head. “I don’t know either, but—it was yesterday that I realized the
necklace was lost. I contacted Miss Crossley, and she said she didn’t take it. Mr. Mancini, I saw McK’s finished piece before, so
this shouldn’t be her work.”
To Harvey’s surprise, Queenie actually would justify the situation for McK. Therefore, he was silent for a moment.
Frankly speaking, Harvey had always thought that Queenie was the biggest suspect in this matter.
Now that Queenie clarified on behalf of Leanna, Harvey looked at her thoughtfully. He found that Queenie was calm with no trace

of a guilty conscience.
So, he believed that Queenie was truly innocent in this matter, and he said, “You and I, we’ll go to Barnett Group’s side and
explain the situation to them. We’ll try our best to minimize the impact of this incident.”
“Okay.” By the time Leanna and Georgina arrived at the banquet hall, they realized that the host had already announced the
suspension of the auction. Not only that, the crowd around them was discussing this matter. Once again, the rumor that Leanna
was once being a mistress to a wealthy businessman resurfaced. Furthermore, some even said that she had always plagiarized
her works. They even added that the overturning of the event this time was her karma. Moreover, there was even someone who
said that the reason Lux kept shielding her was that she had a secret lubricious deal with some high-level executives. One by
one, those people spew those rumors confidently as if they possessed conclusive evidence.
In the meantime, Anna stood on one side with a disdainful look. Then, she crossed her arms in front of her chest as she sneered,
“There’s nothing she can’t do. Besides, it isn’t once or twice she had seized others’ works as her own.”
Georgina reprimanded her softly, “Don’t say that, Anna. Currently, the issue has yet to be fully investigated, so don’t blindly
accuse her.”
“She knows whether or not I have accused her or not.”
On the other hand, Leanna didn’t want to have a meaningless quarrel with Anna in the banquet hall. Hence, she went to look for
one of Lux’s staff members in the crowd and asked, “Where’s Mr. Mancini?”
“McK?” The staff was a little surprised when they saw her. Nevertheless, they quickly answered her. “I just saw Mr. Mancini and
Queenie go looking for Mr. Barnett.”
With that, Leanna asked again, “Which way did they head?”
“Toward the VIP lounge.”
Leanna nodded and thanked the staff upon hearing those words. After that, she turned to Georgina and said, “I’m sorry, Miss
Crossley. I’ll excuse myself first.”
Unexpectedly, Georgina said, “I’ll go with you.”
Just as Leanna wanted to refuse, she heard Georgina say. “After all, I’m also involved in this matter.”
“Fine.”
In the VIP lounge, Douglas couldn’t hide his anger as he had heard a lot of Leanna’s rumors just now. “What is Lux Magazine
trying to pull?! You guys actually send the works of such designers to auction and even cause such a chaotic situation!”
Not forgetting his purpose in coming looking for Douglas, Harvey said, “We’re very sorry, Mr. Barnett. But you have
misunderstood our designer, and the rumors about her from the outside world aren’t true. Besides, she designed the jewelry
auctioned today. Hence, I’m sure there must be something wrong—”
Alas, Douglas abruptly cut him off. “I don’t care about this. You guys had messed up such a good charity dinner! I have already

instructed someone to take down her lot, so you guys better come up with a clarification statement on this matter afterward.”
When Harvey sensed that Douglas was unwilling to compromise, he frowned. “Mr. Barnett, if you remove her spot without any
explanation, it’ll only make everyone think she’s—”
Once again, Douglas interrupted him with a cold voice. “That is none of my business.”
